Special meeting

---

Over the past year, we’ve conducted a diligent and thoughtful affiliations assessment to explore how our current and potential affiliations can help us best "lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ." 

On Sept. 27, we’ll take the next step--a brief meeting with big impact--and your participation is important!

Your church. Your vote. Our future.
